The Allegro-HDL Netlist (pstxnet.dat) and Partlist (pstxprt.dat) contain verbose information about the design, including Nets, Net connections, Net Properties, Pins and Pin Properties and Parts and Part Properties. The Files are not very friendly for user viewing.
When the user selects the Convert NetList operation, The NetBom Tool reads the selected Allegro HDL Design1 Netlist and the associated Partlist. It builds a database of the design information, and then outputs a Netlist in the CadStar RINF format and an easy to read Comma Separated Variable format which is very useful for hand checking of netlists.
A BOM partlist.csv file is also created
